Spiritualized is British alternative music right down to the bone. These space-rocketeers write the kind of music you don’t necessarily wear on your sleeve or start spinning at Frat parties. It’s the kind of jams you listen to when you’re off on your lonesome thinking about heady shit. I put this song, and Spiritualize’s music, on the same shelf space as The Verve’s “The Drugs Dont’ Work”.
Anyways, this song is called “Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space,” and it’s the simplest of love songs but it’s played and sung in a grand fashion. A dude just wants a “little love to take the pain away,” and so he promises THE GIRL that he’ll always love her and then asks her to take his hand.
Blabbering aside, the reason you listen to the song is for the beautifully layered harmonies. So enjoy.
(I also love how they drop lines from Elvis’ “Can’t Help Falling in Love” in and throughout the song)
